A search on here indicates my battery drain may be due to RF receiver picking up stray signals and waking up BECM
1996 ES Tdi disco.
Where is the rf receiver, please, anyone? I can't find a wiring diagram
If I disconnect it and drain stops, I know the cause. Instead of buying the £160 new unit, I will then either leave disconnected or install a switch on outside of vehicle (turn switch on when I want to access vehicle and turn off when leaving vehicle overnoght) Is that ok? Will that work? It can't make the disco vunerable to burglars can it?
Currently, I can only charge the battery when it is off the vehicle because charging it insitu will only get up to 12.5V, off and I can charge up to 14.9V, so I have a big current drain going on (does charge when driving ok)
Thanks in advance.
